Newbe 01 XK8
Greetings from Palm Beach County, FL. Thank you for acceptance! Recently acquired 01, XK8. My first Cat. With 59K mi. Changed all fluids. Transmission was filthy. New seat modules, Working on changing upper control arm bushings now. It’s a bear to remove upper ball joint. She’s a beautiful rag top!
